Taiwan's Hsieh Su-wei (謝淑薇) and her Belgian partner Elise Mertens won the women's doubles title at Wimbledon on July 10. It is Hsieh's third Wimbledon double's trophy and fourth Grand Slam trophy. Hsieh won Wimbledon in 2019 and 2013 with Barbora Strycova of the Czech Republic and China's Peng Shuai (彭帥) respectively and she also won the French Open with Peng in 2014. President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) congratulated the duo on Twitter on July 11, saying that their victory will "inspire future generations of tennis lovers in Taiwan& around the world."
Hsieh’s win at Wimbledon this year marked the first time she has defended a championship title, as the tournament was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Mertens had won two Grand Slam titles in women's doubles at the 2019 US Open and 2021 Australian Open.
